Latins Feast
RomanStyle
Guests adorned in regal Ro¬
man attire will grace PCC’s So¬
cial Hall on March 17 at the
Latin classes’ gala Roman Ban¬
quet. Planned by the Latin sec¬
tion of the Language Council,
the affair will follow Roman tra¬
dition as closely as possible.
Everyone in attendance must
wear Roman apparel, and no
modern utensils, such as silver¬
ware, will be used for eating.
First year Latin students will
act as slaves to their “superior
fellow Romans” — in other words,
second, third and fourth year stu¬
dents, and will perform such
tasks as serving dinner and pass¬
ing finger bowls to them.
Following the banquet, which
in the Roman manner will include
everything from eggs to apples,
a “rex bibendi” will be chosen
by a throw of the dice, and, after
crowning the punch bowl and
offering a prayer to Bacchus, he
will serve the guests.
Entertainment will include clas¬
sical dances, music, skits and
other festivities regularly car¬
ried on by the Romans.
Tickets for the affair may be
obtained from Miss Rosalie Wis-
mar in 133C for $1.75 before
March 13.
Plans for the banquet have
been made by Jack Christopher,
Carol Blackinton, Lois Kurrle,
Patsy Woodbridge, Dan Larsen
and Miss Wismar, adviser to the
Latin group.
All present and former Latin
students and all others interested
are invited to join in the merri¬
ment which will commence at
6:30 p.m.

the 1953 fund drive is held on
week. Anita Wilcott, president
is in charge of the drive, aided
by Barbara Schmidt, the vice-
president; Marty Galloway, secre¬
tary; and Rod Day, treasurer.
Robert G. Bowlus of the Physi¬
cal Science Department, is ad¬
viser.
Last year’s drive netted over
$300, but the council hopes to
raise more than that this year.
None of the money goes directly
to the PCC Red Cross; the en¬
tire amount is sent to the Senior
Red Cross, which then makes al¬
lotments to the school unit.
Money collected in the 10 o’¬
clock classes, will be used for
the regular work of the Red
Cross, such as aid to servicemen
and disaster relief.
